Lecture Topics
- Chapter 15: "Foreign Workers, American Vulnerabilities" — the H-1B and OPT visa programs as labor-arbitrage mechanisms
- Chapter 17: "Betraying the American Dream" — Amazon, Meta, Google, Microsoft, and Intel as case studies in worker displacement
- Chapter 18: "The Trojan Horse — The Legal Invasion of American Labor" — the Immigration Act of 1990 and the creation of the H-1B program
- The "outsourcing loophole": how companies use H-1B workers at below-market wages while displacing American workers
- The national security dimension: the book's argument that foreign nationals in sensitive positions create vulnerability
Reflect & Discuss
This is one of the book's most contentious sections. Engage critically: the H-1B argument intersects with immigration policy, national identity, and the risk of xenophobic framing. How does the book distinguish between "being replaced by cheaper labor" (its actual claim) and anti-immigrant sentiment (which it explicitly disclaims)? Is the distinction maintained consistently? Where does the book's argument overlap with or diverge from academic labor economics research on H-1B wage effects?
